![]() The Faceless Rider by Gareth Mattison The Play: The Faceless Rider was a winning play in the Woolwich Young Radio Playwrights' Competition in 1993. We are celebrating eight successful years of the Woolwich competition by featuring some of the winning plays from past years over the coming months, starting with this monologue about a 16 year old boy in the north of England whose passion for motorbikes allows him to forget his problems, if only for a short time. The Faceless Rider was available in Real Audio throughout March 1999. |
